Fact 1:Circe was the daughter of Perseis, who was a Oceanid Nymph, and Helios. Helios was also the god of the sun. Fact 2: Circe wasn’t a goddess, but a sorceress/enchantress because she was skilled in the magic of metamorphosis, the power of illusion, and the dark art of necromancy. She was considered a goddess because she was immortal. Fact 3: She was able to darken the heavens by hiding the moon or the sun behind clouds, and destroy her enemies with poisonous juices, calling to her aid Nyx (Night), Chaos or Hecate, goddess of the crossroads. Fact 4: Circe had one daughter that i found. Her name is Aega, daughter of helios. She is the goddess of the sun. It was also said some people believe Circe and Odysseus had a son, Telegonius. Fact 5: Her brother was Aeetes , King of Colchis. Also her sister was Pasiphae, who also had the powers of witchcraft. Fact 6: Circe waits for lost sailors to come wandering to her island. Normally, a traveler is treated as a special guest but with Circe, travelers are drugged and turned into animals to serve her as she sees fit. Fact 7: Circe had been troubled by nightmares where the walls of her palace were dripping with blood and flames consumed the drugs she used to bewitch strangers who happened to land on her island. Fact 8: A generation before the arrival of Odysseus on her island, Circe received two other desperate travelers. Jason, the leader of the Argonauts, and Medea, Jason’s wife, arrived on Aeaea in search of absolution for the murder of Medea’s half-brother, Apsyrtos. Fact 9:She is skilled in the magic of metamorphosis, which is what helped her turn people into animals, and the dark art of necromancy, which made her able to talk to the deceased. Fact 10: She was a union of opposites. For example her parents: one is the Dark Moon and the other is the Sun.
I used the blue title, because she lives on an island. Which means she's surrounded by water. I used the reds and oranges for the facts, because she is the daughter of the sun god.
Lastly, I used this music, because it's calming and island remind me of calm things.
